Reply To: Blue States Coronavirus

The governors decided on when to issue shelter-at-home orders, close down the state businesses and other instructions to residents, citizens, tourists and businesses in their respective State.

They each had the largest effect on the trajectory of the coronovirus spread of infection in their State.

Those that dallied and delayed, for example Andrew Cuomo who was upset that de Blasio called for shelter at home instructions before His Highness The Governor did do and so the governor delayed calling for sheltering at home, caused the virus to spread unabated longer (as the New York Times opinion writer in today’s paper pointed out regarding Cuomo and de Blasio in the article I excerpted in my previous comment above), resulting in a far higher death rate in their State.
